Wife works in the hospital. She came home the other day and told me that from time to time folks come in with serious abdominal problems because they have ingested grilled foods with the wires from grill brushes in them. Pokes a hole in the digestive tract. Bad deal. Won't be doin that anymore.
Saw a thread like that on here a while back. Never thought much of it. Found 3 of the wires on the grate a couple weeks ago. I'll keep them for other stuff, but not on the grill anymore.
I think that you might have seen the thread that I posted a while back: http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread....ght=Wire+grillOriginally Posted by fr8dog
There is no way I will ever use a wire grill brush again!
"The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
That's the one! Scary thing is, the wires are tough to see. I just happened to see the sun shine off one. Then I looked closer and found 2 more. I should have paid attention to the post.
I use aluminum foil crunched up...works good
Yup
After brushing just take a damp paper towel and wipe the grates down a few times. It takes some of the black residue off also. You'd be surprised how much of that comes off after wiping.
grill grates are porcelain covered, cook on top of aluminum foil any way. always have
Who cleans their grill?
800 degrees cleans mine pretty good. Just blow the ashes of.
I clean mind every time with a s.s. brush and wash with a cloth.
Grates to in the dishwasher with the scrub cycle.
A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again.

I guess IM too lazy, I just use the pressure washer
Use one of them wire brushes that welders use. They're pretty heavy duty and they're stainless still so they won't rust.
Used wire Brush for years, no issues, cause common sense wire brush, then in sink for wash n rinse, and always cover them with foil before cooking anything
I use the Char-Broil ceramic impregnated bristle brush no steel bristles. I only scrape off the crust from the grates before I get ready to grill, and the heat takes care of the rest. Need to keep them grates seasoned.

I had one. I awoke to a noise out on our patio last weekend and put the outside light on. I saw a possom with my grill brush in his mouth making a b- line for the woods.
